“But it is illegal to leverage one’s monopoly power to maintain that monopoly, basically to stay a monopolist by means other than simply having the best product.”
This actually sounds more like a fitting description of #Microsoft: products so awful, it hurts.
NB: not saying that to defend Chrome. I don't want to use that either.
"Come to the dark side, load Linux" we say.
Consumers: "No, no, we prefer the adware loaded OS, really. We only trust large corporations, Microsoft loves us. Please give us AI, and I like the advertising in my Start Menu. It will even be better occupying my screen! How dare you suggest a non-corporate OS!!"

Microsoft pushes full-screen ads for Copilot+ PCs on Windows 10 users
Microsoft has frequently used this kind of reminder to encourage upgrades.Andrew Cunningham (Ars Technica)
Dieses Drecks Windows 11! Ich muss auf dem Firmenlaptop leider diese Seuche nutzen. Habe sofort nach der Installation den Standortdienst in den Systemeinstellungen deaktiviert. Eben ne Meldung unten in der Leiste, dass xyz den Standortdienst nutzt.
Ich gleich nachgeschaut und tatsächlich, dieses Drecks Windows hat den Standortdienst von selber wieder aktiviert.
Windows ist und bleibt für mich einfach der letzte Rotz schlecht hin! 😠
#Windows11 sammelt extrem viele persönliche Daten,wie Nutzungsverhalten und Standortinformationen usw,die oft an #Microsoft und #Drittanbieter weitergegeben werden. Dies führt zu #Datenschutzbedenken.
#Linux hingegen ist datenschutzfreundlicher, da es #OpenSource ist und keine persönlichen Daten ohne Zustimmung sammelt.
Nutzer haben mehr Kontrolle über ihre #Privatsphäre und können genau entscheiden, welche Daten sie teilen.
Daher ist Linux eine bessere Wahl für den Schutz der #Privatsphäre.
Does this seem like a good fit? - The #X algorithm at its finest!
It seriously appears to be going down the drains.
The other suggestions regularly change, but some #US generals & #BillGates keep showing up.
Is X trying to promote them or are those ads?
Furthermore the home page always shows #ElonMusk posts, even if you don't follow him.

[l] Wie finanziert Microsoft eigentlich das Three Mile Island-Atomkraftwerk?
Über Copilot-Abos jedenfalls nicht, denn keiner will für den Scheiß zahlen.
Kein Problem! Dann erhöhen sie halt die anderen Abo-Preise um bis zu 40%.
Damit ist auch endlich geklärt, wer für den "KI"-Scheiß zahlt. Ihr.
Bis zu 40 Prozent teurer: Microsoft plant saftige Preiserhöhungen
Für diverse Microsoft-365-Produkte müssen Kunden bald tiefer in die Tasche greifen. Für Copilot führt der Konzern ein Monatsabo ein.Niklas Jan Engelking (heise online)
"To all my writer friends that use MS Word - Microsoft has turned their Al bits and bots on to automatically go through anything done via Word. Here's how to turn it off. File > Options > Trust Center > Trust Center Settings > Privacy Options > Privacy Settings > Connected Experiences"
On the Mac I found it under Word/Excel/Etc > Preferences > Privacy, and near the bottom was the checkbox for "Turn on optional connected experiences" which of course was on by default.
#Nokia did a (soft) launch party for the #N900 at the BFI on the South Bank in London in September 2009.
lcuk had had a prototype, so we were able to do a cool demo: youtu.be/yk27PenpAz0
_EDIT:_ I note wryly that Nokia's blog post about this is now on the #Microsoft website: blogs.windows.com/devices/2009…

Y'ALL KNOW #COPILOT IS BULLSHIT, RIGHT?
you do not invest 13 BILLION IN EQUITY nor gift some scripty kids another $2 billion, give or take, so you can have your own separate and much inferior #AI product, right?!?!?!

If you want some help deciding how to stop using Microsoft Windows, there are many people on the #fediverse and #nostr who would be happy to give you advice.
I recommend Linux Mint.
Also, I refurbished and sell computers with the option of having Linux pre-installed. Can ship anywhere in the United States.
Feel free to DM me if you have any questions.
This is too scary, just in time for Halloween. Too bad it is for real...
